Purpose

Format Enterprise Standard Date/Time String.

Operation

As a corporate standard, we stamp data with YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM
and this can be accomplished with a single though complex
CodeWright function call.

This function packages the CodeWright function call to
easily implement the corporate standard. Anyplace the current
date/time stamp is needed can be achieved by inserting the
tlaStandard( "datetime" ) function call.

Example

tlaDateTime( )
